Let's see your newest acquisitions!

Found myself a nice BIE. Picked it up for $0.05
Still trying to photograph coppers. Not my strong suit.



Also picked up this AU 1909 wheat and XF 1920 wheat for next to something


And a couple halves.


A purdy eagle, (I have yet to pay cash for one. This one I traded for)


And finally a story. I was in charge of buying raffle prizes for the March meeting at the coin club. I ended up buting a couple silver pieces and Proof sets from the 70s and 80s. I got reimbursed my $35 and bought $5 in raffle tickets. I was the first two tickets picked, so I picked these two. Not bad for $5 eh?
Silver Washington Half

Caz, would that George Washington commemorative happen to be silver? Nice pickups, btw!

 

I guess I'm going to have a type set some day. I saw this one at the local show and thought it was nice. It's in a lower tier slab but I didn't think it was overgraded.

 

A few more for My 7070 Album

 

Man there are some great looking coins here on this thread, great copper pictures...Alan

 

Color me stupid cause I know I've seen the term. But what is a BIE?

 

i had to look it up.

Thank you very much. I'm on my phone and its quite hard to multi-task and look things up.

Since we're on the subject of Lincoln's, I have 95 DDO but I don't see what's supposed to be doubles really. Where are the markers for the doubling?

 

looks like the liberty and in god

Very nice for you to say, thanks...DEX

 

Thanks so much. After directing me right to it I can clearly see the doubling on the letters. 'I' 'N' 'G' 'O' it's very pronounced on the 'B' and noticeable on the 'E' and the 'R'

Thanks again. That was fun to find and see. I thought I could see it on the 'B' before but I never pulled this put to research just took the slab for face value that it was DDO

 

A nice little haul of goodies!

 

Here's some seller pics of a couple nickels I won't recently.

1913 Buffalo Nickel Type 1 MS-62





1950-D Jefferson Nickel MS-65 5 Full Steps





Two different sellers, surprisingly similar pictures.

Hoping for some gems when they get here!

 

And look what the mailman just dropped off. She's been all over the easy coast circling her way in for a landing






And some iPhone enhanced pictures

 

That 1876 is just amazing great find thanks for showing it...Alan

 

Another So-called dollar that I thought was pretty attractive:

 

Thank you very much Alan, I am always glad to share my little finds with you guys!

Heck, y'all are the only people who care
and really appreciate the efforts.

Thought I should mention she's officially graded at AU-50

 

Just got this bad boy. Seller's pics are spot on. LOVE the color! NGC MS65.

 

It's stands for " Doubling " in " Liberty " :devil:

 

Picked this pair up today at a coin show. It was my first show, I got my wife to go along. She got into it, actually picked out the 1950D first, and then barginned the guy down a couple bucks We had almost no cash with us, it was good to go and check it out...
